Abstract

Some four hundred and fifty years ago, in his Preface to his Greek Testament, which became the standard for three hundred years in spite of the haste and imperfections connected with it, Erasmus expressed his delight as follows: "These holy pages will summon up the living image of Christ's mind. They will give you Christ Himself, talking, healing, dying, rising - the whole Christ, in a word. They will give Him to you in an intimacy so close that He would be less visible to you if He stood before your eyes."
